I am going to guess she did not mean new level of communication as if we were lacking communication. From what I can tell she was apprehensive about sharing some thoughts thinking it would hurt me. We talked about my support of this relationship she is developing and she decided to let me know some of those inner thoughts that I suspected may have been there but just were not being shared. I know, I know "what thoughts" nothing really big (in my mind) but things like she is REALLY feeling this guy, has been thinking of the things she wants to do with him, how often she thinks of him and the things she is already thinking she is open to even though it is still early in their relationship.
Obviously, she can correct me if I have misspoken or misunderstood anything.
